Auditory & Speech Training

According to the American Speech Language Hearing Association (ASHA), there is an important difference between speech and language.

Language is made up of socially shared rules that include:

-What words mean and how the same word can have different meanings

-How to make new words by adding endings

-How to put words together and use them to communicate an idea

Speech is the verbal means of communicating.

Speech consists of:

-Articulation (How speech sounds are made)

-Voice (Using our vocal cords and breathing to produce sound)

-Fluency (the rhythm of speech)
